John Prine, singer, songwriter, legend - Dead at 73 from COVID-19

We lose so many these days it seems. This one really hurts because he was such a class act inside and out. To me, he represented the musical embodiment of Polonius’ declaration: " brevity is the sole of wit". His writing was always infused with humanity, humor, love or some combination thereof. I listened to him last night and tonight.
I’m listening to The Tree of Forgiveness right now. Wow. Prayers to his family. RIP John. I hope Heaven is everything you thought it would be and much more.

Ain't Hurting Nobody

The Moon is Down

What a treasure to our souls. Will be missed. 
 

One of my favorite John Prine songs " Please don't bury me"  We had this performer by the name of Stan Farrlow come to our little town in Canada in the early 70's and he was very talented and was Friends with Merl Hagert and
Kris Kristofferson. Stan was a draft dodger and that's what brought him to our little town.
But sitting in that little bar listening listening to Stan play John Prine songs was very special indeed as I never heard of John Prine before. Now I own all of John Prine's CD's  You can actually find Stan Farlow on line, as he had a few hit songs in the US
